Abstract
The possibility is demonstrated of fabricating arrays of cone-shaped GaAs nanowhiskers with a surface number density of up to 109 cm-2, a characteristic height ranging from 300 to 10000 nm, and a transverse size of approximately 200 nm at the base and from 200 to 10 nm or smaller at the top. The characteristic height of GaAs nanowhiskers varies in direct proportion to the effective thickness of the deposited material layer and in inverse proportion to the transverse nanowhisker size at the top. The growth of GaAs nanowhiskers is studied as a function of the deposition rate, the temperature, and the crystallographic orientation of the substrate. From an analysis of the obtained dependences of the nanowhisker size on these parameters, it is concluded that GaAs nanowhiskers are formed through the diffusion mechanism.
